At Potterne, Devizes, Wilts:
Here lies MARY the wife of JOHN FORD,
We hope her soul is gone to the Lord;
But if for Hell she has chang'd this life,
She had better be there than be John Ford's wife.
And a few for fun, origin unknown:
Here lies Ezekiah AIKLE
Age 102
The Good Die Young
In London
Ann MANN
Here lies Ann MANN
Who lived an old maid
But died an old Mann.
Dec 9. 1767
Ribbesford, England
Anna WALLACE
The children of Israel wanted bread
And the Lord sent them Manna
Old clerk Wallace wanted a wife
And the Devil sent him Anna.

My all time favorite:
Here lies Herman Smoot;
He almost learned to parachute!
